Stem Cell Technology and Personalised Medicine

Stem cells are a rapidly evolving field of biological research with great importance in the study and treatment of many diseases. Patient’s stem cells can be used to either determine the molecular mechanisms underlying disorders or study drug responses of the diseased cells. It may also be used to test safety and effectiveness of different therapies. Moreover, mesenchymal stem cells and induced pluripotent stem cells represent two promising sources of stem cells with great potential in cell transplantations and regenerative medicine. Based on current evidence, stem cell technology has a significant prospect in personalised medicine.
